How to tie or wear your African wrap-skirt
Starting with
the wrap, ensure that the embroidered end (if any) is on the outside
flap.
with your legs apart
(to give you room for walk-steps), hold the two ends of the wrap -
with the embroidered end on your right;
tuck in the left side
to the right side of waist, making sure that the top end of it
sticks out above the tuck;
take the right side
and wrap it towards the left side of your waist;
pull the left and
right ends towards the back and make a knot as tight as you need;
pull the layers from
the bottom so that the bottom edges are even.
You can wear the wrap
long (waist-ankle) or short (waist-below-knee) by wrapping the skirt
long or short.
